Brother MFCL2750DW Monochrome All-in-One Wireless Laser Printer, Duplex Copy & Scan, Includes 4 Month Refresh Subscription Trial and Amazon Dash Replenishment Ready

Bought this printer to replace a (fast) digital copier. Just reached my first 10.000 copies in a few weeks.Toner cartridges last indeed more or less 3000 copies.Love the duplex scanning and duplex printing which saves me a lot of time. Much faster than my other Brother (color)printers. This MFC-L2750DW is meant for B&W only.Output is good. So far no issues.Would have loved a larger paper tray than this one that contains max 250 sheets.Very happy with my Brother family.UPDATE AUGUS 2023In November 2022 I bought a MFCL2750DW to replace my malfunctioning digital copier. The first impresions of the Brother printer were so good, that I also left behind my old Canon B&W copier. In January 2023 I bought my second MFCL2750DW. Isn’t that strange? Let me explain why I did this.One of the main reasons to buy this Brother B&W printer was the speed. Two thousand prints per hour is very useful since I do a lot of books for educational purposes. In the beginning I had my doubts about the small paper tray(250 sheets), but I learned that putting in some 200 sheets was a piece of cake and made it possible to continue printing for hours without any delay. What I also learned that cleaning the corona wires from time to time must not be forgotten. The printer doesn’t give a warning about that. Warnings are given when you run out of ink or when the drum has to be changed. Both are very simple actions to do.Another reason to buy this printer was the possiblity of two sided scanning. After having scanned thousands of papers I really can’t complain. When there was an issue, it had to do with very old sheets of paper, sometimes even slightly bent because of use of paperclips for months. But working with normal nice sheets of paper, I never had an issue.But why the second printer?First of all, living on a small island in the Caribbean without local technical support gives you more peace of mind to have a “spare” in reserve when something goes wrong, for even schools can’t wait for weeks when you are in trouble.But the main reason was getting a better workflow. Two sided printing is not even half the speed of one sided printing. So I decided to use one printer for the quick one sided printing and the other for two sided and printing 160 gram covers for the books.Last month was the period for the beginning of the new schoolyear and as always the busiest time of the year. To be more concrete: the page counter of the first printer shows 173 thousand and the other one 51 thousand. More than 120 K prints were done in the last three weeks. That’s what I mean with: the sky is the limit with this superb printer.Did nothing go wrong?I think I had all together 3-4 times a paper jam. Very easy to solve.Only once I had some trouble with a toner cartridge. To spread the toner better I had slightly shaken the cartridge, but after that the printer said: No toner. It was a full cartridge. Re-installing the cartridge didn’t help. But with assistance of the excellent Brother Service I could solve that problem: just triggering the lip on the right side of the cartridge did the job.What about the future?My plans for next school year is to work with 3 printers: the first for one sided printing and the others for two sided printing. So my total printing speed will be 4000 sheets per hour.Did I say that I am very pleased with my printers? No, I love my Brothers!

With other printers, there's been a big hassle of downloading their proprietary software before I can connect - and on my work laptop, I'm not allowed to download software! This printer allowed me to connect via my wifi (it took a few steps), so I was appreciative. The printer prints well, quickly, and quietly.

I recently purchased this printer and so far it has worked like a charm. This is a replacement for my Epson inkjet printer. Was tired of changing cartridges which can be pretty expensive.Setup - Setup was fairly simple and straight forward. I didn't go for the wireless setup because I've experience some issues with my previous printer. I believe the issue is that these printers can only use 2.5GHZ frequency of the router with "n" network and due to that you usually have to keep the printer close to the router. My router is in the basement and my office is on the first floor. I have ethernet wiring throughout my home so I've connected it via ethernet. It now is available on all my Apple devices/PC/Macs. I've tried printing via all my devices and it works beautifully.Scanning - I've scanned almost 400 pages so far using the "feeder" and "flatbed". When choosing 300 dpi option to scan either in single page mode or duplex, it scans pretty fast. No issues. Saving documents, importing scanned b/w pages via Acrobat worked fine. I had some issues with scanning colored pages using Acrobat. It kept giving me errors. I need to research that a bit more. One more thing that I wish Brother would look into is that the pages don't come straight if you use the feeder to scan. Not a deal breaker but wish it wasn't like that.Printing - I've printed close to 100 pages so far and again no issues. Print quality is pretty good. One issue that I found on my PC was that for some reason the option to print double sided wasn't available. I had to go to device settings and dig deeper to "Install" that option. It seemed strange as this option was readily available on Macs.Fax - I haven't used this yet. Will provide an update in the coming days.So far, I'm pretty pleased with this printer though I feel that Brother could have used better material for its paper tray and the buttons. It feels cheap. The screen is also pretty small. Hopefully, it'll last me for a couple of years. Highly recommend it.Update: Dec 2024This is an exceptionally well made product. I've been using it for the last 6 years and it still works like a charm. No issues printing, scanning, copying etc. I don't use the Fax functionality so can't comment on that. I keep updating the software from time to time. I print from my Mac, iPhone, iPad and other devices. I scanned close to 200 pages one time and didn't have to restart it. The only issue that I can think of is that the pages 'sometimes' show up crooked. Very rare and mostly happens if I have a paper that is soft like a receipt or not a standard size. I think this printer will last me a few more years. Highly recommend.

This replaces a stand alone scanner and stand alone printer. I wanted duplex scanning and this was the lowest priced Brother I found. It works OK, but has a couple of foibles. The manual feed (for envelopes) seems to never get the envelope aligned precisely even, and then sometimes just reports "jammed" when it should just work. Setting up the paper tray for envelopes is just not practical. Also, for scanning, it wants to force the scan to a standard size; letter, legal, etc. My old Canon scanner just took whatever I ran through it and that became the scan size.So, not a perfect solution, but I can live with the glitches. It does creditable two sided printing. copies OK, and does the duplex scanning pretty much OK if you don't care about having to have a standard page size.
